Any Gluten Free Ice Creams?

are the Carvel cakes just ice cream or do they have a (gluten) cake base??? Dairy Queen's Ice cream cakes have a (gluten) cake base.

Carvel cakes are all ice cream (YUM!!!), but you have to be careful still because they like to put "crunchies" in between layers. Basicly these are cookie crumbs.

And of course check the flavor/toppings of the ice cream, as normal. :D

Turtle Mountain's Soy Delicious "non-dairy frozen desserts" are good too, though it varies by flavor. ;-) (The organic chocolate flavor is my favorite - good texture and taste.)

The Carvel cakes in my area, New England, are all made with chocolate and vanilla ice cream, but the cake has to be ordereithout the crunchies as I previously stated. Since the cake has to "set" one cannot go into the store and get a cake right on the spot. It does need to be pre-ordered. The gels for the toppings are also gluten-free.By this I mean the gels used to write a message or to decorate the cake with a character. They make a nice cake alternative for a birthday party, as there is no risk of contamination from a regular type cake. Many of my daughters friends even ordered the cakes for their parties because they didn't want my daughter to feel left out. However, it is wise to check the cake was made without crunchies before leaving the store in case the person making the cake missed it on the order.

      Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results? Some people test negative but have a positive biopsy, others test positive but negative biopsy.  This is why it can take years and misdiagnosis of other diseases that Celiac Disease can mimic. The above link is a good read with real life examples. Something I find interesting is that in 1980 or so a new diagnosis was created, Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, only 10 years after Norman Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize for creating our modern wheat and the Green Revolution.

      @Steve-n-Portland, there is a difference in the requirements to use the label "Gluten Free" and the label "Certified Gluten Free". "Gluten Free" is governed by FDA regulations and has a ceiling of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is a labeling convention used by the GFCO, an independent international third party certifying group that uses 10 ppm as its standard.

      We have had numerous reports from forum participants experiencing gluten reactions from Trader Joe "gluten-free" products. It seems it's not a good place for the celiac/gluten sensitive community to shop.

      Also, a class action lawsuit was launched in 2024 against Trader Joe's re: their " gluten free" everything bagels. They tested at 269ppm. (Personally, I am not sure they will win. The FDA says that the *ingredients* have to be less than 20ppm for a company to label something "gluten-free."  In order to be certified as gluten-free by the GFCO, the *final product* needs to be less than 20ppm. That said, the lawsuit is arguing that most people read that label and assume the final product is safe for people with celiac. Thus, many people were made sick. And being sick can have costly consequences in regard to work or school, depending when one becomes ill.)

      Correction: My previous post refers to hickory products when I actually meant bakery products.
